WikiFX | 2023-01-10 11:23

Abstract:A trader was scammed by a fake worker who claimed to be working with XM as a trader and offering investment to people to trade on their behalf.

WikiFX Report An Investor Has Scammed By A Claimed Legit Broker (2).png

Forex trading can be a source of income. Some people trade forex as their primary source of income, while others do it as a side business. Because the forex market has boomed, many people exchange conversations while doing online trading without realizing that the risk of being scammed is extremely high. People made the online trading business riskier than before by offering services to people to invest and trade on their behalf. But in the end, it's just a scam. When they do this, they usually claim that they are working with a legitimate broker and can show you proof of profits from their investors.

WikiFX got a report from an investor saying that he had been scammed by a fake broker claiming a worker from XM.

As we all know, XM is one of the most popular online brokers in the online trading market that offers a variety of instruments to trade.

People are still blinded by these tactics: somebody will suddenly contact you, offer good trading services, and promise a good return once they invest.

The Story

An investor was able to invest money in the person contacted and promised a good result from the money he invested. As time went on and they got to know each other, he told her that the money he had invested had earned over 90%. However, the sad part of the story is that when he requested to withdraw some of the profit, he was told to pay a broker's fee of 10% of the total profit, and it must be deposited before he can get his earned money, knowing that they can deduct the said fee from the money and the earnings they've got.

Clearly, the statement above from the investor was indeed a scam tactic.

It is a very unexplainable feeling that your hard-earned money will suddenly go to waste because of a very encouraging investment offer.

WikiFX is working side by side with 30 financial regulators across the globe, monitoring scam brokers and exposing them for their illegal activities.

WikiFX on the other hand always lists brokers to help people identify the status of their chosen brokers. All broker information has been stated for the people to give a hassle-free investigation.

The App has the capability to index all the fake brokers from the name of the broker you are searching for.

FCA Warns Swift TradeX on 1 September 2026: 7 Checks Before Paying

FCA warns Swift TradeX in a notice first published and updated on 1 September 2026. The UK Financial Conduct Authority says the firm may be providing or promoting financial services without permission, is not authorised, and may be targeting people in the UK. The notice names the website swifttradexai.com, a Worcester address and a UK telephone number, but also cautions that unauthorised businesses may use incorrect or borrowed contact details. The confirmed issue is authorisation status—not a court finding about every transaction. Anyone considering a payment should stop, verify the firm independently, and avoid using contact information supplied by the platform itself.
